DOUBTERS.
Can Be Chanced hy Knnnlcdcr,
If there is any doubt about making brain
per by the use of certain food, the doubter
should make the following experiment .
Helen Frances Huntington of Gaiin svnlr,
G&.. says "Just n word of commendation
concerning Grupe-Nuts. which I have found
to be the most wholesome, nourishing and
appetizing food that bus ever come to my
knowledge.
"1 am not a dyspeptic, but being con
stantly engaged in evere brain work. I
found that 1 did not thrive on ordinary diet,
eren a moderate dinner dulled my brain so
as to be prartlcally Incapable of critiral
work. I tried meat Juice, peptouoids, tbe
two-meal system of light breakfast and no
Fupper. which brought on nervous dopletlun
and sleeplessness, so I resorted to one and
another of tbe various health foods, which
all seemed alike tasteless and valueless us
a bruin food, until, quite by chance. 1 had a
dish of Grape-Nuts fond served as dessert
1 liked It so well that I began to use It
dally, tor supper four teispoont.ful tn a
saucer of hot milk, eaten before It dissolves
to mushlness.
"This point should be remembered, as.
after a certain time, evaporation seems to
effect the sweet, nutty flavor erf the food, as
In the case of certain fine-flavored frultr..
"Tho result in my rase was simply as
tonishing. 1 had no -desire whatever tor
swrot pustrys, meats, or in fact anything
rise, and my brain was as olear and artive
ut night as on waking irom a long, refrth
tng sleep.
The peculiar advantage about Grape-Nuts
food is that It supplies nutritive qualities
of a varied diet without the bad results of
iiruvy eating. 1 cheerfully recommend its
use to all brain workers if not as an ex
clusive diet certainly for the last meal of
the day. 1 always take it with roe when
five-ling which bvc a deal ot annoyance

commenced Wbnn the exact valuation ir
known by the city official the council will
ineet and proceed to make the levy for 1900.
Under existing laws thli. levy should be
nikie on July S and doubtlew- will be. Until
the exact valuation is known the amount of
the levy cannot be determined, but it Is
oonsidered safe to predict that it will take
almut r.r, mills to urocure eunuch revenue to
par running expense for a year. It will
take something like tlO&.OOO ti keep the
municipal government moving during the
coming flki-al yar. and while thU entire
amount will not be derived from taxation
it will be nerefary to raise about XKi.000
from this Kouree.
As Is usual at this time of the year, the
taxpayers are quite anxious to ascertain the
amount of the levy, as each property owner
can then figure out the amount of taxes he
owe. City taxtt arc levied on the first

Some change in the police department
will be made on July 1. It is understood
that four officers will be given an oppor
tunity of necking other positions. New
members will be added to tbe force as or-
casion require, but the regulations laid
down last April will have to be complied
with by all applicants At a te-ont council
meeting Member Johnston offered a reso
lution rescinding the action of the eouncil
taken on April IS In regard to tbe height
and weight of policemen. The effort was
unsuccessful and all patrolmen who can
not comply with the regulations will be
dropped. Chief Mitchell Is rapidly getting
the force into first -tias working order and
after the first of the month he hopes to
present a fine force of men for inspection.

brought good tidings to the members in the
form of a promise tf a speedy construct mi
of the Twentj-fourth street viaduct
Mr. Connell told the members what was
being done in the matter and prophesied
that the viaduct v ould tie completed In one

for additional damages, as the lot would

city cnglneer and other officials had arrived
at a proiKWltlan which they would submit :o
the railroad officials as a solution of the
problem, und thut he had every reason to be - i
lleve that the plan would be pleasing ic
the company. According to the plun the
viaduct proper Is to be oonstructed In every
way Identical with the new viaduct over

ner of the old Sixteenth street viaduct
These wooden supports would last ten years i

He further stated that the officials of the
Metropolitan street railway had re-quit.ted
him to ie that the new structure should
be built strong enough for stre-et car traffic
as it was their intention to run a line from
Leiuvenworth ureet to South Omaha
This plan was upprove-d by the club and
D W. Shull. one of the property owners
affected by the viaduct, stated that he would
waive damages under the changed plans ut
he had done heretofore. It was finally un
derstood that the waiver of damages nhould
be indorsed upon the plans as finally
udopted.
Tho question of straightening Twenty
fourth street wus dlscuwed and Councilman
Mount stated that all legal complications
affecting the street would be rorooved by
the time the viaduct if completed.
Whpn the street lighting question was
brought up It was reported that many of
the gasoline lumj. were not lighted, al
though the eompuny is being paid for them.
Councilman Haecall stated that for two
months the bills of the company bad been
scaled down for failure to keteip the lamps
lighted and that the contract would be en
forced. In tbe disrusiiinn it developed that
the gas Inspector of the city has to travel
160 miles to lnapert tbe lights and that It Is
practically Impossible for htm to got over
the territory oftener than once a week.
Councilman Hascall then told the club
that it should get ready to prosent to the
council the improvements it deemb Impera
tive In 1P01. so that they cun be taken Into
consideration In making the levy for next
ye'ar. us money must be raised before it Is
spent.
A vote of thanks, wns tendered The Omaha
Bee for the Interest taken in the afluirs of

efforts in behalf of that 7art of the city.
